Brown increased the regulations (slightly), but the system seemed to be working (and this time for the less well off too) so they didn't change much. You can blame Labour for 'not fixing the roof while the sun was shining', but the Tories broke the roof beforehand.
That's like really, really not how the Labour Party saw it. It seems rather crazy for anyone to blame the Tories for Britain's mess right now, given that they've been out of government and an ineffectual opposition for 13 years. And Brown was a really shitty Chancellor of the Exchequer and not a much better PM, to boot.
